The Fraternity Primary Cadet Sup


Monday evening. the Primary Committee
gave the Cadets supper at the Fraternity
rooms, it being their first anniversary.
To say that they had a grand time would
be putting it very mildly. The cadets came
in uniform, every member showing great care
in his dress and military bearing. At eight
o'clock they marched into the amusement
hall, where the ladies had provided a boun-
tiful supper. Many friends of the boys and
the Fraternity came in to see the Cadets and
enjoy the occasion.
After the supper, Captain Flaherty called
the company to order and after thanking the
friends in nice little speech, called upon
Lieut.. Conley, who responded in fitting
terms
Lieut. McKeown followed, assuring the
friends that the organization was not only a
great pleasure to the boys, but a means of
greater help in giving them better views of
their duty to themselves.
Capt. Barrett (Co. b made some enthusiast
tic remarks which brought down The house.

Good Work Of detective Heala

The PRESS noticed yesterday morning the
fact that Mr.. John S. Head, of this city
had arrested young fellow by the name Of
Robert FL. Smith, for placing an obstruction
on the railroad track at Etna. Smith, II
seems, is only II years of age, and placed the
obstruction on the track to get revenge for
being refused ride on the train. He placed
heavy sticks of cordwood on the track in
three different places. Fortunately these
were discovered just before a passenger
train, which runs at a high rate of speed,
was due. Detective Head at the time was
in Bangor, and being informed of the mat
Ter at once began an investigation, and in
his usual skillful manner looked the case up.
and soon had the guilty party under arrest.
Mr.. Head is entitled to the thanks of the
public for this piece of detective work.
